"Bang!"
A muffled, invisible sound arose, and a cloud of black smoke rose from the desk in front of him. The yellow talisman ignited without fire, exuding a chaotic aura of spiritual energy.
Although he failed, Lin Xiuyuan's face showed an excited expression.
"So this is the wonder of the Purple Talisman? This is truly an incredible opportunity!!"
This time, Lin Xiuyuan noticed that when he was making the talisman, he meditated on the purple talisman in his mind and found that it brought him some profound insights!
This allows him to be more natural and adept at making talismans!
It is estimated that the mystery of this purple talisman is that it can increase his success rate in making talismans.
Each increase in the purple light seemed to equate to an increase in his proficiency in talisman making.
"Currently, there is only a trace of purple light, so the help it brings is not that great."
"My previous success was probably mostly due to my good condition and peaceful mind at the time. With the blessing of the purple talisman and a stroke of luck, I succeeded in one fell swoop."
"It would be difficult to reissue it, but..."
Lin Xiuyuan's thoughts raced, and excitement gradually appeared on his face. "As long as the purple light of the talisman continues to accumulate, my success rate will keep increasing. If the purple light of the talisman in my sea of consciousness overflows..."
Lin Xiuyuan dared not think about it. If this continued, what kind of astonishing probability would it eventually reach? Could it be until the success rate of talisman making was 100%?
The success rate of most talisman masters in crafting talismans is only around 20% to 30%!
If things go as he thinks, then when he tries to become a Spirit Talisman Master or even a Profound Talisman Master in the future... wouldn't there be no bottlenecks or obstacles at all?
Moreover, if a 100% success rate could be achieved, the profits would be several times greater! The cost of making talismans is only about 20% of that of finished talismans, and at most 40%!
How much spiritual resources could this provide him?!
There's no need to worry about any expenses related to my spiritual practice!
"As expected of a mysterious treasure, the wonder of this purple talisman is truly astonishing. From now on, I, Lin, can look forward to the path of immortality! The path of immortality is within reach! Hahahaha..."
Lin Xiuyuan couldn't help but burst into laughter.
It took Lin Xiuyuan quite a while to calm down his excited emotions.
There is still a long way to go before the true wonders of the Purple Talisman can be fully revealed.
It is estimated that it may take dozens of attempts to accumulate a sufficient success rate to guarantee the finished product of the talisman.
...
The next day.
On Lin Xiuyuan's stall, there was an additional entry-level talisman, the Great Strength Talisman.
Upon seeing this, Old Xu couldn't help but feel a bit surprised. As friends who were somewhat of affluent despite their age difference, they weren't complete strangers. He clearly knew that Lin Xiuyuan's talent in this area wasn't particularly high.
In previous casual conversations, I learned that Lin Xiuyuan would probably need to accumulate experience for several more years before he could be confident of breaking through to the first-level talisman master.
Now, are we able to refine entry-level talismans?
"You've become an entry-level rune master?"
Old Xu said in surprise.
Lin Xiuyuan shook his head: "It was only refined by chance. It's still a long way from reaching the next level!"
Old Xu seemed unconvinced, thinking Lin Xiuyuan was just being modest. He had even brought out a Giant Strength Talisman, which meant he was at least at the half-step advanced level.
"Tsk tsk, still being modest! It probably won't be long before I have to call you Grand Talisman Master Lin, will it?"
"It seems this little market won't be able to accommodate Master Lin anymore. He'll have to leap over the dragon gate and become a cultivator from the outer city!"
Old Xu joked.
Upon seeing this, Lin Xiuyuan shook his head. It seemed that Old Xu thought he was being modest, but the truth was hard to say, so he simply skipped the topic.
However, when it came to this point, Lin Xiuyuan asked curiously:
"Old Xu, I heard you've been running this stall here for decades, haven't you? You're still only at the fifth level of Qi Refining after all this time, so you obviously have no hope of reaching the Foundation Establishment stage. You've made enough money over the years, why don't you go back to the inland to retire?"
"After working so hard for most of your life, wouldn't it be better to enjoy it? If you still have any aspirations, why not just start your own cultivation family? Maybe you can produce a few immortal talents and enjoy all the pleasures of the mortal world along the way."
"Alas, how could I not know? The path to the upper realm is already hopeless for me. You don't need to rub salt into my wounds!"
Hearing Lin Xiuyuan's words, even though he had long since come to terms with it, for a cultivator, having no way to advance to the next level was undoubtedly the most desperate situation.
For a moment, Old Xu's expression dimmed, but quickly, a look of pride and joy appeared on his face as he said:
"You wouldn't know that, would you? I've had a son for a long time, and he's already a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator, working in a small gang in the outer city... Although it's hard to tell what will happen in the short term, I think he still has a chance to achieve Dao. Otherwise, why would I be fighting for something at my age?"
Lin Xiuyuan was slightly surprised. In the past, their casual conversations were mostly for entertainment. They had never talked in depth. After all, at that time, Lin Xiuyuan's business was in dire straits, and he was only focused on selling talismans.
Only then did I learn that Old Xu had a son who was cultivating in the outer city.
No wonder Old Xu has been setting up his stall here for so long, rain or shine...
The sale of a powerful talisman brought in six spirit stones, and with the surplus for the whole month, Lin Xiuyuan's monthly income reached seventeen low-grade spirit stones.
Thinking that with the purple light, he might be able to successfully refine it again and shorten the accumulation process, he directly bought three materials for the Giant Strength Talisman at the end of the month.
Unfortunately, the purple light of the talisman had clearly accumulated too little, and the profound blessing it brought was not much. All three attempts to refine the Giant Strength Talisman failed.
Lin Xiuyuan wasn't too disappointed. If he succeeded, he could shorten the time; if he failed, he could increase it. It was just a matter of how much or how little; either way, it would accumulate!
